“Of Enoch, who walked with Elohim, it is told that he had become one of the angels who was all eyes and wings. Thus is the poet. Everything in him perceives the things, and everything in him flies past the things. He is wholly in the one thing that he experiences, and yet is already and still in all the others at the same time.”
― Martin Buber, Daniel: Dialogues on Realization

“At the last, then, the only way to know whether the God who comes into thought when we attempt to understand reality as a whole, and to understand also our knowledge and love of that reality, is consciously and conscientiously to pursue the transcendental ecstacies that open the world to us to their ultimate end: to seek, that is, a vision of and union with God.”

“The tenebrous canvases of Rembrandt are beautiful, while the shrill daubs of Thomas Kinkade, with all their sugary glitter, are repellant.”

“The most beautiful life that has been imagined is the life of the knight Don Quixote who created danger where he did not find it. But more beautiful still is the lived life of him who finds danger in all places. All creation stands on the edge of being; all creation is risk. He who does not risk his soul can only ape the creator.”
